African Cubist Faces — Original Painting on Canvas
Bold, geometric, and deeply rooted in the African cubist tradition — this original signed painting on canvas is a commanding large-format composition of fragmented African faces and forms, rendered in a rich, earthy palette of deep brown, terracotta, orange, teal, green, and red with bold white outlines and the artist's signature geometric pattern work. The canvas is divided into bold interlocking zones — two large, stylised African face forms dominate the composition, their features fragmented and reassembled in the cubist manner: a large central face in deep brown with heavy-lidded eyes, a broad flat nose, and full lips gazes outward with quiet authority, while a second face on the right in teal and brown peers in from the edge with a single watchful eye. Between and around them, the canvas is filled with bold geometric background zones — a deep green field of diamond grid patterns, a rich red-brown arc of concentric circle rays, a teal panel of vertical stripe marks, and a dark panel of small circle dot patterns — each one adding depth, rhythm, and visual tension to the composition. Circular motifs in blue, white, and multicolour punctuate the composition like eyes or shields. Signed by the artist in the lower right. A powerful, museum-quality original work.
